"You know them all?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yang also sensed that the situation was somewhat tricky. He bowed slightly and asked Guan Xiujie,
"Should we take them all back and interrogate them separately?"
Guan Xiujie's prepared remarks were no longer needed; he was just about to agree to the suggestion, "Alright..."
"No need for that."
Yu Ling is already standing right in front of the murderer, can she still dawdle? Her smile vanished, her aura hardened, she snatched the photo from Guan Xiujie's hand and shoved it in front of the construction workers, showing it to each of them as she walked, using a little bit of the original owner's psychology and the pressure of her divine soul.
“I’m not going to beat around the bush with you. The person in this photo is dead and has been bricked up in a wall. Only a few of you have the time and the means. Are you going to step forward now, or should I drag you out? Think it over.”
To be honest, Yu Ling's small frame wasn't threatening at all, and people who do hard labor all year round shouldn't be afraid of her. But as soon as she said that, they all trembled like leaves, clearly frightened, and said one after another that they didn't do it.
"Yeah?"
Yu Ling put away the photos, stood in front of one of the thin construction workers, and asked him a question that made eye contact.
"Is the lady of that house pretty?"
"Huh?" The man didn't react for a moment, and with Yu Ling using a bit of mental suggestion, he hurriedly explained, "I didn't do it! I was on the rooftop getting some fresh air, and I didn't even bring any tools! Besides, I'm known for being weak, how could I possibly brick a grown man into a wall!"
...The entire room fell silent...
"nailed it."
Yu Ling walked over to Guan Xiujie and patted him on the shoulder, "The rest is up to you."
The situation progressed too quickly; no one in the house had time to react. However, judging from the situation, it was clear that the person being questioned last would be the murderer. The other construction workers had already fled far away, leaving only the person involved standing there, stunned.
Who is he? Where is he? What did he say?
I hadn't even used the alibi I prepared, how did I get caught?
Guan Xiujie followed suit and asked the foolish murderer who had exposed himself, "We haven't mentioned which victim was walled up, so how did you know it was a man?"
murderer:"......."
It's so frustrating to have exposed myself!
"Then you have no proof that I did it!"
Chen Yang had already pulled out handcuffs: "Yes, but we'll have them soon."
This is the kind of situation where they're going to take the person away. It's been less than ten minutes since they entered the house, and the murderer has already been brought out. Many people present are still confused, especially the murderer himself. Although he did commit a crime, why does he feel so wronged?
"Hmph, I'm going to be sentenced to death anyway, so why do you think I'll just surrender obediently?!"
Enraged, the murderer wanted to take someone down with him. He glanced around at his colleagues, who were already far away. Chen Yang, the closest, was in his police uniform, while Guan Xiujie exuded a menacing aura. Having trained as a detective, he looked tall, imposing, and capable of fighting.
After much deliberation, he finally set his sights on Yu Ling, who appeared gentle, elegant, slender, and quiet.
Was that guy scary just now? I must have been too nervous and misjudged! Since this kid got me exposed, I'll make him pay with his life, even if it kills me!!!
The murderer, baring his teeth and brandishing his claws, rushed towards Yu Ling.
Chen Yang & Guan Xiujie: Is this guy out of his mind?
They still remember how Yu Ling beat up the robbers today.
Yu Ling, now the target of revenge, had a bright idea. He couldn't let himself get the kill stolen this time, could he? Thanks to nature's bounty, he decided to defend himself!
...The scene was too gruesome to describe at this time...
Yu Ling's attack was heavy and fast, which was completely inconsistent with her appearance. In the blink of an eye, the murderer was already lying on the ground with a bruised and swollen face and broken limbs, looking like a maggot, and was about to die.
At that moment, no one was actually 'stealing the kill' from him, but Chen Yang came over and stopped him from making the killing move.
"Alright, the case isn't closed yet, it's good that the person has been subdued."
Out of respect for the protagonist, Yu Ling finally let the man go.
Guan Xiujie didn't care about the murderer's fate. Once the murderer was found, he would be out of the picture. He was just a little unsatisfied with the progress of Yu Ling's feigned surrender and hadn't had enough fun.
Only the murderer on the ground was filled with remorse.
He kept fidgeting on the ground, whispering as softly as a mosquito's buzz, "...Help...ambulance..."
Thanks to Yu Ling's phenomenal participation, the fastest police response in history was achieved. However, the way the murderer left the scene was a bit unique; the same group of police ambulances that had just taken away the robbers arrived and took the person away.
Guan Xiujie felt the case was solved too quickly and wasn't enough, while Yu Ling also felt there was still plenty of time and they could try another side quest before going to bed. The two of them asked each other in unison, "How about we find another case to solve?" and then turned their attention to Chen Yang.
Chen Yang: "Am I going too?"
"Of course!" Yu Ling's side quest is to help the protagonist.
The three reached a consensus. Guan Xiujie had an excellent memory and remembered that there was a school nearby, which happened to be the school where the child went missing. They decided to go find the child first.
Although Yu Ling was not interested in this, there are many ways to deal with this kid. When a brat gets too tough, he will eventually be taught a lesson. She did not try to stop him, but she did nothing and relied entirely on Guan Xiujie's reasoning.
The final outcome was similar to Yu Ling's guess: it was someone the brat had offended who caught him. The kid had set up a small trap or something similar, pricking his foot. He happened to be in a bad mood at the time, so...
However, the person who retaliated against him did not use severe force, but only used physical means and verbal education to make the child deeply realize his mistake.
Another case has been solved, and the mischievous child is back with his parents, crying loudly.
However, after this incident, the child's parents finally realized their mistake of spoiling their child, which was tantamount to killing him. They stopped comforting the child and even beat him severely.
Afterwards, the parents of the bear child, along with their child, visited everyone they had previously wronged to apologize and issue letters of understanding, stating that they would not pursue legal action against the person who had kidnapped the child.
Yu Ling didn't know if this was out of fear of retaliation from those she had offended, or out of genuine remorse. The pain they had caused would never disappear, and the scars of those they had hurt would always remain. But to have this outcome was already quite good.
As the day drew to a close, it was getting late, and Chen Yang suggested that they go to his house to rest, which Yu Ling gladly accepted.
The system, having worked tirelessly all day, is still waiting outside for Yu Ling to call him home...
Unfortunately, Yu Ling has forgotten about him yet again.
